Refund Policy

Shared Hosting Refunds

Shared hosting accounts carry a 30-day cancellation policy. Shared accounts canceled before 90 days of service will incur a $75.00 cancellation fee to help cover our costs of your Miva Merchant license. Since we require no minimum commitment for the length of your shared hosting service, we do not collect more than one month of service in advance. Cancellations of all services must be made with at least one month advance notice. Therefore no refunds are available for any services.

At our sole discretion, we may apply a prorated amount towards your next month's service fees in the event of sustained non-planned or non-emergency service outages.

Dedicated Server Hosting Refunds

Dedicated servers carry a 90-day cancellation policy. We do NOT offer any refunds on partial use. If you decide to cancel your dedicated server, you may continue to use the server until the end of the cancellation period, and charges will continue to be billed through the cancellation period. At our sole discretion, we may agree to cancel certain dedicated server plans with less notice, but in general we DO require 90-days notice. No refunds will be honored for any pre-paid months if you have paid for any service in advance.

At our sole discretion, we may apply a prorated amount towards your next month's service fees in the event of sustained non-planned or non-emergency service outages.

Design, SEO, Consulting Services, Paid Support Services, etc.

Services are performed "as-is". All design services, consulting and paid support services (ie: service work), whether billed hourly or as fixed-price packages are NON-REFUNDABLE according to your written and executed design services agreement. In the event you do not have a signed service agreement or your agreement has expired, first surviving terms of that agreement will apply, and then this general policy.

Module Refunds

Module licenses may be returned within 30 days of original purchase AT THE ONLINE STORE WHERE THEY WERE PURCHASED. According to your software EULA, you must return or destroy all copies of the software if the license is returned. *Note: Modules licenses are NOT transferable.
